I move where the shadow moves

Verse

Shadow on the courtyard, marking noon

Feet already moving to a slower tune

Chalk line on the concrete, worn and thin

Body knows the hour before I begin

Sun climbs high behind the water tower

Every step I take unwinds an hour

Pre-Chorus

Watch the shadow lean, watch it turn

Something in my chest begins to learn

Time was never something I could hold

Chorus

I move where the shadow moves

Turning slow, turning slow

Body is the sundial motion

Turning slow, turning slow

Verse

Copper light drops low behind the gate

Shadow stretching longer, I don't wait

Dust between my toes, warm from the ground

Hours falling soft into the sound

Line I stood on this morning's gone

Now my shoulders carry the dusk along

Pre-Chorus

Watch the shadow lean, watch it turn

Something in my chest begins to learn

Time was never something I could hold

Chorus

I move where the shadow moves

Turning slow, turning slow

Body is the sundial motion

Turning slow, turning slow

Bridge

No clock hand ever moved me

Only light across my skin

The day is a circle closing

And I am dancing it thin

Chorus

I move where the shadow moves

Turning slow, turning slow

Body is the sundial motion

Turning slow, turning slow
